Hmmm.... wonder if an Accord chassis can even handle 500hp without significant bolstering. Something to think about. I know a lot of the muscle car guys sometimes have to stiffen the chassis to accomodate that kind of power. Anyway, that would be one hella torque-steering SOB. Probably would be barely driveable. If you're going to do a 4 cylinder buildup like that, you might want to consider a RWD platform.

the muscle car guys have to stiffen the chassis to accomodate the twisting from the torque produced by those engines twisting the chassis on a RWD platform.. doubt you'd need that much reinforcement on even a boosted honda engine because they don't make that much torque.
